Maohinkky.— Mr. William Mullikeu’s Mnchine and Wheelwright establish ment has keen thoroughly reconstructed and is again getting under full headway. W r e took a stroll through the building, lately, and wero pleased to observe the many evidences o.’ thrill aud prosperity exhibited on every hand. The gentlemanly Proprietors are practical mechwiics, and have been eminently and deservedly successful in the construction of all kinds of machin ery. We saw specimens of their work at Kaolin aud in their shop, and feel no hesitancy in pronouncing them to be perfect m All that pertains to the par. ticulor branch of art to which they be long. *■ • A bell, weighing about sixty pounds, was cast a few days ago by Messrs. M. &H. The tone is very sweet, and the general finish excellent. Let such establishments as these be favored by our people; then, when the question is asked 1 “Watchman, what of the night?” the answer will be: “ The day of prosperity has dawned.” Akuest ok an Expkess Robbek.—A man by the name of Lynch, who robbed the Southern Express Company at Mem phis some months since, and escaped, was recently arrested near St. Louis by the Compnny’sdeteetives, who had been on his track for months. The prisoner was taken back to Memphis, tried, con victed and sentenced to nine years’ hard labor in the penitentiary. A man who robs from the Southern Express Company may as well makehis will and prepare for a trip to the peni tentiary.—Exchange. Our contemporary is correct. The Southern Express Company is liable and reliable, and is obliged to protect its own interests as well as the interests of the public. Hence, the employment of detectives, and the promptness with which those who attempt to steal from it are arrested and convicted. This lit tle incident only serves to show the Ex press style ot doing business, the securi ty which it affords its patrons in the transmission of money and goods, aud the futility of attempting to steal from its agents. Arrested.—Robert Walker, freed man, was yesterday arrested by officer Tant, on the charge of being concerned in stealing a cow from Lee Henderson. Lem. WBeler (colored), was also ar rested for larceny from the house. Lem desired to make a splurge among the “cullud foax,” and with that view pro ceeded feloniously to appropriate a suit of clothing not his own. He was disap pointed ; the clothes did not fit him, and he disposed of them at private sale. Both were tried before that energetic Magistrate, Justice Phinizy, found guil ty, and in default of bail, were lodged in jail, to await their final trial before the Superior Court. Mr. Tant deserves the commendation of all law abiding people for the diligent manner in which he discharges his duty as a. public officer. Literary Association.—A worthy correspondent, writing over the signa ture of “Citizen,” seconds the proposi tion made in the Daily Press relative to the propriety of organizing a De bating Society in our midst. The gen tleman’s heart is all right on the sub ject, and says he will furnish, free of expense, a large, airy room, for the use of sucli a society, until a more suitable place could be procured. The offer is a generous one. Will not some of our young men get together, organize an association of the kind mentioned, and accept the proffer ? Job Printing.—Having the best fa cilities in the Southern country fordoing first-class work, the Daily Press Book and Job Printing office, being replete with all the latest and newest styles of type and colored inks, is prepared to execute all classes of printing at the shortest notice, and on the most reason able terms. Send in your orders. “ The Old Daze.”—Josh Billings oc casionally gets off a good thing. His latest remark is as full of good feeling as truth, that “in the good old daze there was more fun in thirty cents than there is now in seven dollars and a half,” Presekt for President Davis.— The Richmond Board of Trade recently raised, by subscription, a sum of money necessary to procure for Mr. Davis a comfortable chair. It will be purchased and forwarded to the distinguished gen tleman at once. Still the Same —The piazza, to the tottering condition of which reference was made a few days ago, has not yet been repaired. The first thing some one knows will be that somebody will be meet with an acciaent, and then somebody will have to pay damages. Dropced DowN.—The steamer Eclipse, in obedience to instructors from the authorities, has dropped dowa the river below the city limits. I [official.] Proceedings of Board of Health.

Mombers, Messrs, liisbop, llolleymnn,Plumb, Stevens, Moyer, Tweedy, ami Uargan. The Minutes were read and approved. The Chairman stated the object of the meeting to bo to tako into consideration the sanitary condition of the city, the report of a Cholera care in Augusta, and reports of Cholera and Yellow Fever in Savannah. The Chairman then read a communica tion from the Clerk of Council of Savannah as follows: City or Savannah, ) Mayor’s Office, August 3d, 1866. j To Hit Honor the Mayor of Atiyutla : Sir :—J am directed by His Honor, Ed ward C. Audorson, Mayor, and I>r. John D. Fisk, Chairman Board of Ilealth of tho city of Savannah, to most respectfully call your attention to the enclosed extracts from one of the daily papers of your city : [From the Ohronicle A Sentinel August Ist.] From Savannah—Cholera Suhtidiny a! Ty bee—A few Sporadic Cases of Yellow Fe ver. Savannah, July 30.—Later accounts from Tybee report Cholera subsiding. There are three cases of Yellow Fe»er in this city—less than before in nine years for this time. [From the Chronicle & Sentinel, August 2 ] Cholera and Yellow Fever at Savan nah. —There seems to be iio doubt now that our sister city of Savannuh has been visited again by those terrible scourges of the human raoe. As yet, neither of these dis eases seems to bare been epidemic. But, that genuine yellow fever is there, it is not denied. Our object in calling attention to this in aHe r now, is to urge upon our city fathers the importance of enacting, immedi ately, strict quarantine regulation. We be lieve that both cholora and yellow fever are not only contagious, but that the seeds of these diseases may b« and aro transferred from place to place hy means of steambonts, railroad cars, etc. That the virus of yellow fever has boen brought to this city in the box or freight cars of our seaboard railroads, we believe to be indisputable. That it may be thus brought again, is equally certain. Some aetion in this matter should he had at once. If *wo should wait until the dis ease shall have assumed the form of au epidemic, as at Savannah, it may be too late to save us from the scourge. Let the condition of our city, in 1854, excite our Mayor and Council to prompt and decisive action. AVe aro no alarmists. Neither do wo be lieve that Augusta must, necessarily, suffer from this plague. Wo believo that wo hnve the power to prevent its risitatioh here, if we act with prudence and decision. I enclose, in reply to this scandalous perversion of the truth, the original Ceme tery Reports. There is not at present, nor has there been, one case of yellow fever in this city. The only death from cholera, was John Robinson [colored], pilot of steamer Sylvan Shore, who was carried from the boat to the house whore he died. I am also directod to ask yourself to rectify those reports officially. Tho city has been more healthy this year than last. Very respectfully, Your obedient servant, JAMES STEWART, Clerk of Council and Secretary B. H. « Hero follow copies of the Official Reports of A. F. Torlay, Keeper of the Laurel Grove Cemetery, and Jeromiah MoCrohan, Sexton of tho Catbodral Cemetery, for the week ending July 30th, 1866, showing the mortality in that time to be from the fol lowing diseases and other causes . In the first named Cemetery, from Tris mus Nascentium, 1; found drowned, 1; old age, 1; unknown, 1; Compression of Brain, 1; Convulsions, 1; Cerebral Typhoid Fever, 1: Erysipelas, i; Consumption, 1; Pul.

The Chairman then suggested that the members of tho Board should go around and themselves assist the Inspectors of Lots in tiieir duty until November next. Memorandum books would be furnished to each member, and a special police appointed to aid in tbe distribution of disinfectants, removal of nuisances, etc. Mr. Plumb called the attention of the Chairman to decaying watermelon rinds in the street. On motion of Mr. Tweedy, the following resolutions were unanimously adopted; Resolved, That, in tho opinion of this Board, after consultation with several phy sicians in Augusta, there is no cause for ap prehension in regard to the health of the city at present; but recommend energy and attention on the part of the municipal offi cers and citizens in koeping lots and streets perfectly clean. Resolved, That tbe communication from the Clerk of Council of Savannah, in refer ence to reports concerning the health of that city, be published, and that we congratulate His Honor, tho Mayor, and tho authorities of our sister city, on the evidences of the good health of their community, which the said communication affords. Resolved, That this Board meet weekly during the summer and fall months. The Board then adjourned until Wednes day, August Bth, 1566. L. T. BLOME, Sec’y Board of Health. The “ Chronicle’s ” Mid night Brawls. —Our neighbor says that the “ roughs ” recently alluded to by it were but “ a party of gentlemen going around in an Express wagon giving serenades,” but “ they were on foot, a portion of them dressed in blue uniform , and they made most wretched music,and behaved very disorderly, proof of which the Chief of Police can obtain from those who saw, heard and were much annoyed.” So much in justice to the Chronicle & Sentinel on the part of the “ official organ.” Fraternizing. —Governor Walker, of Florida, has appointed delegates from that State to the Philadelphia Conven tion. Among them are two Colonels— one (Scott) a Confederate, the other (McKibben) a Federal. Standing Aside. —The majority of denizens, prompted by fear or taste, have begun to stand aside from indulg ing in water melons. They do not com mand as ready sale as they did a few days ago. a H XT n O H BEOOHfi for to-day. Bt. John’s Methodist Church —Ser- vices at 10£ A. M. by Bishop George F. Tierce, aud 8 P.

Sabbath School at 9 o’clock, A. 51. Preaching at 10J o’clock. No sotvico on Sabbath nights during summer months. Do we go To Church ?—How many ‘ persons, male and female, will remain away from tbe House of God this beau tiful Sabbath day for trivial excuses, and how many without any excuse what ever? Can we not devote one-seventh of our time, at least, to the service of our Creator ? Can we expect that He will continue to bless us if we neglect Him ? We treat no other friend so ill, and it is the best of friends we treat thus; one who is not only able, but willing, to help us in all things. If a friend, an earthly friend, was to invite us to dine with him to-day, how many of us would dcline ? And yet, though often urged to come to the table of the Lord, constantly spread for His children, we go not; but treat our Father with contempt. Do so no more, my iriends; but go up to the House of the Lord with grateful, praying hearts.— Exchange. Monthly Church Meeting. —The second monthly church meeting of the Methodist Churches in this city will be held, at their respective houses of wor ship, this evening at eight o’clock. Afull attendance of the members of each Church is earnestly requested. Our Methodist friends will bear in mind the fact that the object of the General Conference in ordering these meetings was the advancement of the interests of the Church. Kaolin Works.— We labored under a misapprehension in making the state ment contained in yesterday’s Press, concerning the proprietorship of the above works. They are owned by a joint stock company, of which Col. R. B. Bullock is President, and Dr. Schaub Superintendent and General Manager. A First Class jewelry establishment is that kept by Mr. A. Prontaut, next below the Augusta Hotel. His stock of diamonds, rich gold and silver jewel ry cannot be excelled in this city, and all work entrusted to his care will lie neatly and quickly done, and warranted for one year. This house was estab lished in 1850. The lovers of choice Wines are in vited to attend the sale of Day, Russell & Benjamin, at 91 A. M. to morrow.
